So far I've made my living online doing a couple of simple things: Thinking, taking action and providing real value in exchange for money. And here, I will be revealing some methods and strategies that have helped me creating a profitable home based business and made me successful online that I encourage you to STEAL and USE them for your own success.

First, I'm NOT a guru. I just learned a few things about marketing by spending many years of my life FAILING first...

But when I figured this stuff out, I started making real money online.

What was it? What changed my life around?

Manage Your Time To Maximize Your Efficiency!

One thing I learned was that managing my time was harder than I thought it would be... especially working from home.

I could take so much 'time off' --running to the store, taking a 'nap', watching a little TV... instead of working on my business!!!

So I started to treat my 'home based business' like a job. I worked 9AM-4PM, Monday- Friday and took 1/2 hour for lunch.

Create An Imaginary Boss!

I know, I know you hate working for a boss. This not a real boss that will cause problems. It’s an imaginary boss.

I created a 'boss' who would reprimand me and tell me I had to get 'to work' when I started goofing-off.

He was 'demanding', but I needed him. You might try it. Make him or her the 'perfect boss'.. always encouraging you to do better, think faster, be a better person and very, very demanding to get things done.

He's a real SOB ;-)

You may think that's a bit weird... but, I kid you not, it WORKS.

Create Your Own Opt In Email List

Well another thing that really helped me getting a profitable home based business and make money online was figuring out that the money is in "the list".

Duh...

It took me the longest time to figure out what was meant by "the money is in the list".

I heard many 'gurus' talking about. But, never really understood it until I built my own list.

Now my #1 job online is to build my list

Did you get that?

YOUR #1 job online is to build YOUR list.

Let me state this clearly:

Building a list of qualified prospects and keeping your name in front of them is more important to your financial health than anything I can think of.

You need a constant stream of new prospects and customers or your home based business will die a slow death.

You should start by putting your website address on all your marketing materials, including brochures, yellow page ads, newspaper or magazine ads, letterhead, etc..

What's next?

Well, first you want to have in place a 'form' on your website that allows your visitors to subscribe to your list. You can call your list anything you want: An ezine, newsletter, 'updates', or include a free report for signing up, etc...

Once you have captured their name and email address, at a minimum, you can contact them and remind them about your home based business. Send them news and help them in some way.

The important thing is to be there, in their mailbox or ‘inbox’ when they are ready to buy!

It's about the cheapest form of advertising anywhere and if you're not using the data storage and follow-up systems the Internet has to offer you're missing a large amount of profits. When you build your list, you will make a profit.

I heard someone once say that most home based business owners don’t play hard enough… the guy who said that went on to sell his company to ebay for $300 + million.

Home based business opportunities are available nationwide in a variety of industries you need just to find what suts you most.

Do you play hard enough?

Do you market hard enough?

Do you live like you mean it?

Do you want to create a profitable home based business?

‘Nough said.

Go do it.
